"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

You need to be eating the way that is outlined in Effort's "Simple Starting Diet".
Look in Mike's food journal for recipe ideas. It is sticked at the top of the forum.
LOTS of beef and eggs. I didn't see either in your diet today. You need to make an effort if this is going to work.

Seriously, if you have whey, and put raw eggs in your shakes, you won't taste it. Just blend it up real nice with with fruits too if you like (but not at night). It's a bit overwhelming at first but before you know it will be better than the old ways you used to eat...and could teach you how to cook unless you love plain flavors

Do the shoulder press with either dumbbells or a barbell.
What angle is the incline you are using? Make sure it isn't too steep.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

i don't know what angle.Quagmire911 said:
it's set at my school's gym, and I can't change it, but it isn't very steep.
also, i think some of the wednesday workouts hurts my shoulder and i have tendonitis there. I heard incline press doesn't hurt you rotator cuff?
Dinner :
3 eggs w/ olive oil
4 fish capsules
veggies
shrimp
musrooms
i know i should've eaten chicken or beef, but after my post workout meal, i just couldn't put much more down. All this food was basically forced into my stomach...
also, i notice that i'm needing to sh1t more often

Friday-
No lifting cause we had a swim meet.
Ate Lots of tuna and steak.
btw, as said in my other post, i'm gonna switch from incline press to the chest machine, cause my shoulder started to hurt again when i swam yesterday.

Don't switch to the chest machine. If anything that would be more likely to aggravate the problem.Crazy Asian said:
Drop the barbell and go with dumbbells. Keep things light on chest day for a few weeks and give the problem time to heal.
Dumbbell Incline Press 2 x 8-10
Dips 2 x 10
Shoulder Press 2 x 10 70lb
Tricep Extensions 2 x 10 10lb.
And remember that other exercises could be contributing to the problem. I urge you too try and get videos of your lifts and take on board some of the things I said in the thread you made earlier in the week.
